Dubbs has brown hair, blue eyes and he is about 5'9". He may be driving a black 1999 Ford Escort with a Guinness sticker on the back window and New Hampshire license plate number 345-1264, according to police.

"He is considered dangerous so do not approach, if seen please call 911," Dronsfield said.
